Instructions
- Marinate the chicken:
- 1. Combine all of the marinade ingredients together and add them along with the chicken in a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
- 2. The chicken can be marinated 2 days ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator. If you do this, omit the lemon juice from the marinade and add it right before grilling.
- 3. Make sure that the chicken is at room temperature before placing it on the grill.
- 4. Thread 7-8 pieces of chicken on each skewer.
- Make the Vegetable Skewers:
- 1. Alternate all of the vegetables and the Halloumi and thread onto skewers.
- 2. Set on a tray and brush with oil and season lightly with salt.
- Heat a grill on medium high and brush lightly with oil.
- Place the chicken skewers on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden all around. When the chicken is cooked place on a dish and cover with foil to keep warm.
- Grill the vegetable skewers over medium-high heat for 3-5 minutes or until the veggies are tender.
- Place the pita bread on the grill and heat until warm. About 1 minute.
- Place the chicken in a serving dish and top with some lemon wedges.
- Arrange the chicken with the dips, veggies, and pita on a platter or on a large cutting board and serve immediately. Enjoy!
